Well I done a search to see if this kind of thread has been done before and nothing came up so i decided to make one well... Ill start it off. I was using a pair of halfords foam grips and they began to get ripped and they had big holes in them. So I was in my shed looking for spare grips and couldnt find any. then I saw an old inner tube, so I cut it to the right size and slid it over the foam grip. They are soo comfy and suprisingly they are not slippy like some grips. they are soft and unlike foam grips you cannot feel the bar. So post up pics of things that you have bodged EDIT: No homemade tensioners in this thread
